There's a lot of interesting stuff being posted on #scimom recently, a lot inspired by Jade's recent post. I'm a mother and a scientist, and I find the tensions very frustrating. And I may write more on that later. Right now, I want to focus on some pleasant fantasies about the future, most aptly drawn by Randall Munroe.
Both of my parents are computer people, so my sister and I were taught "always comment your code" in the same manner that we were also taught to say please and thank you. So far, both have served me well.
